One drunken hookup, and He Yunping, a famous Beta actor, and Chu Suan, a famous Beta actor from a rival camp, ended up with a child on their hands. By the time they found out, the child was already fully formed.
He Yunping, who had spent half a year desperately dieting because he thought he'd gotten fat: "..."
But he was actually an Alpha.
To make sure the child could be legally registered, He Yunping contacted Chu Suan, whom he hadn't seen in six months. They signed a contract and got their marriage certificate in one smooth move.
The contract lasted sixteen years. Once the child turned sixteen, they would divorce.
Neither would interfere in the other's love life, and they didn't have to make their relationship public.
After all, the child was an accident, they didn't get along, and their fans fought every day.
For the first four years, everything went smoothly. They took turns looking after their two children, and only saw each other at the year-end family dinner.
Their fans still fought every day, and the organizers of every event, large or small, carefully avoided letting the two men cross paths.
Then one day, without knowing it, both men received invitations to a parenting reality show.
He Yunping: "..."
Chu Suan: "..."

A parenting reality show was about to premiere, and the trending topics were lively.
The reason? Two Beta actors who seemed to be enemies had both been invited.
Both actors had previously been rumored to have secret marriages and children, but since Betas rarely had offspring, nobody had believed it. Now, somehow, both announcements had come at once.
As the show began, both sets of fans were ready to go to war.
In Chu Suan's house, which he had shown publicly many times, a little girl in a frilly dress silently lifted Chu Suan's blanket. Chu Suan woke with a start, and the two stared at each other without a word. Then he made a phone call.
The man's hoarse morning voice rang out clearly over the audio: "He Yunping, you took the wrong kid."
The He family fans were dumbfounded: ???
The Chu family fans were furious: I thought we only argued online. I didn't know your family was stealing our kid too!
As the show went on, the audience realized something was off.
How were they raising their kids? Why were the children always clinging to their rival? Did that make any sense?
As the show continued, the fans couldn't sit still either.
Isn't this a parenting show? Why did you two leave the kids behind and go watch the sunrise yourselves?
Top trending topic of the day: This is a parenting show, not a dating show
Second trending topic of the day: Two Betas will never work out

Chu Suan was a Beta. For some reason, after the child was born, he could smell He Yunping.
* Beta-Alpha (a small amount of ABO, to make the child's existence plausible)
